Have you - or the kids - looked at any guidebooks yet? Or the dstination info here. The kids cold check out the Let's Go studet guides.

It also depends on what the kids like to do. Out daughters love ballet and we have done that several times. Also took in flm festivals. And the ydefinitely did some teen shopping while we looked at some galleries. On thing thes adored was the Musee Cluny - into all of the knights in shining armor/ladies in waiting sort of thing. But it can really varya lot by interests. And I would think a 10 year old boy would like things much differnt than teen girls. Perhaps spend one day doing girly things with them while our husband does some mikitary stuff with your son?

This is a pretty broad request... when are you going, what are your interests? Do you have anything on a "must do" list? Have you been there before? Where are you staying? First time? I'd suggest you contact Michael Osman at parisfind@aol.com and let him tailor a day or 2 that meet your needs (at 125EU/day, he's a "deal").

Fat Tire Bike tours are great; they offer one option during the day and another one in the evening. My son and I (64 years young) loved our outing and met a lot of friendly people plus a great tour guide.

Second the recommendation for Fat Tire bike tours, they are fun and very easy for anyone.

I also think kids need to put some effort into this lovely family vacation,, have them do some research and pick even one place each they want to go to.. even if its obvious ones like Eiffel Tower, at least if they have input they are less likely to whine about being dragged about to other sites that may not be their favorites.

Catacombs are almost always a hit with teens. My teens loved them, my daughter who was younger did not want to go. Ask kids.
